    You are right about a tough family to I.D.  Look at 9251 – Acronicta 
retardata photo by Jason Dombroskie  retarded dagger. I believe by looking at 
the bottom of the wings and other patterns of the wings that this moth might be 
closer to yours. Eddie

  Eddie, I need your help again! I found this moth tonight, I think I have it 
ID'd to the genus, but I'm not sure about the species (so many of these look 
alike!). I think it may be this one I found on MPG:

  However, there were a couple of others that look very similar. I guess I 
should wait until the next day to ID the moths, it can be difficult to do at 
night when I'm tired! Thanks! :)
